“Failure to resume within the stipulated period will lead to being considered as having absconded from work, an offence which attracts immediate dismissal in line with the Public Service Rule NO.030413.

“All staff on GL13 (CONHESS13),  Assistant Director or its equivalent and above, being management staff, should not be involved in the strike action.

“All Heads of Departments and Administrative Units are directed to bring the content of the circular to the attention of their staff for strict compliance,’’ the statement said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that JOHESU, an amalgamation of  five health workers unions,  began  a strike on  April 17, crippling health  services  across the country.
